Wearing a brooch has been something that both women and men have been doing for many years to add a much-needed piece of glamour and style to their outfits. These ornamental pieces of jewellery can come in many different guises; some are quite plain and some are really quite unique pieces of jewellery.

If you are unfamiliar about what a brooch actually is, then here’s a brief explanation. It is a piece of jewellery that has a pin at the back; this allows you to fix it to your clothing. It is important to choose a piece of clothing that can actually support the weight of this item because sometimes they can be particularly heavy.

Many brooches come with beautiful stones within them that possibly reflected the person’s standing in society and it is not unusual to find such precious stones like sapphires and emeralds. These brooches were made in many different beautiful designs and you will generally find that most brooches are made from metal and stones.

Back in the times when they first became popular, brooches were really not seen as items of jewellery but were used as a practical way to hold certain pieces of clothing together. If you would like to get a first-hand look about how these brooches really appear, then your first port of call should be stores such as Kalmar Antiques in Australia. Often, these antique stores or antique dealers have websites where you will find an excellent selection. 

The following are just some ways that you can use this excellent accessory with different parts of your wardrobe:

  • To Hold A Scarf In Place – Sometimes the evenings can be a bit brisk and so the need to wear a scarf is quite high. The thing that makes people reluctant to wear a scarf with any outfit is that first of all it looks out of place and secondly, it’s hard to make it blend in with the overall ensemble.
  • To Set Off Your Hairstyle – Many people commonly associate brooches with the clothing that you wear, but many people use them as an accessory as well and so wearing one in your hair as a kind of hairpin can make any hairstyle stand out from the rest.
  • Bring Elegance To Any Dress – That simple black dress that you wear frequently can be livened up with the addition of a brooch. It’s not uncommon for women to place the brooch on the upper side and it’s always best to wear this brooch with a piece of clothing that is understated. The reason for this is that if you wear a dress that has bright colours and patterns, then the brooch is going to get lost in all of it and nobody will notice this fantastic piece of jewellery.

You will find that there are many opportunities to wear many different kinds of clothing that reflects your overall personality, if you would just add a piece of antique jewellery like a brooch.
